Twizy, obviously.

Whilst travelling on my year off, I had my luggage lost about three times. Each time it eventually got to returned to me one way or another. Got a bit paranoid if my luggage would turn up with later trips, to say the least! Anyway, as others have said, always have about three days clothing in your h...

I'm Somewhere between 2,3,7,8 and 9

Is that Lings in Harlston? They tried to charge me £50 for adjusting when the brake light comes on, after I asked them to look at it at the first service (had to push the rear brake lever hard to get the brake light to come on) When I pointed out to them that it was like that from new, and I bought ...

I have zero interest in football but I was still invested in that. Why didn't the French mbop fella take all the kicky shoots? I have only a slight passing interest. Started watching it about 70min and thought Argentina would coast to a 2-0 win...then watched in amazement as France/Mbappe pulled it...

That's a bit shit Duncs. Hope you managed to stop the leak before too much water escaped!

Loads of people have fallen over in our work carpark, because the cheapskate landlord didn't bother to grit the carpark. Though they claimed they did...they clearly didn't. When I parked up, I had to take a space where the sun doesn't hit and the compacted ice made it really like an ice rink...fortu...

Most of my work involves packaging Engineering Software, using a Powershell wrapper then I bung it into MS Configuration Manager, for user installation via Software Center or push deployment. So basically no, I can't show you my work, it's incredibly niché and not that appreciable by people inside t...

Interesting geeky vid about metallurgy:

Probably a Merc V8 of some sort, I like the thought of an old SL.

I definitely want a motorbike with a special engine, though I haven't decided what that will be yet!

Who is sceptical that the 2030 ban on IC engines will actually happen?

Haha, indeed.

I think most of us who haven't owned a V8 yet are thinking the same! Nice one on biting the bullet and actually getting on with it

Tom Scott must read this forum. Or is good friends with Mik.



So an autopilot landing looks just about doable, providing you can find the buttons/dials/switches the air traffic control are asking you to adjust.

Manual landing, you dead!

A fine for the amount they breached the budget by, payable out of next years budget. Job done. They might still count the £15m expenditure as worth it, as from what I understand they gain an advantage for about three seasons by over spending on one. £15m would be a major breach and as they say - pe...

Coaster and I just got back from a very interesting road trip to Stuttgart and the'Ring, in his GT3. First up was a day at the MB museum which is highly recommended if you're remotely interested in motoring history. The following day was the Porsche Museum, a smaller affair and less in depth but wa...

Seems like Geely are getting braver and braver with their purchases over the years

Belgium. Probably, yeah! It's a strange one, as Italy is probably more crazy, but they can drive...whereas the Belgians seem to be shockingly bad at driving. Driving in the Philippines is pretty crazy. I love the way anything goes and you see people do stupid stuff like park for a short while on a ...

Went into work yesterday and collected my 13 mini.

Going to set it up at the weekend, as I cba to waste a weekday evening moving across from Andriod to iOS
